Summary

Dominick Daniel Daly, nephew of Governor Daly, with his wife Harriet (nee Douglas). Harriet was the daughter of William Douglas (who was a resident of Darwin from 1870) and married Daly in the early 1870s. Harriet's family arrived in Darwin in 1870 onboard 'Gulnare'. Dominick's family arrived on the same day on board 'Bengal'. He was a surveyor with Goyder's Expedition of 1869. The couple returned to Darwin where Dominick worked for the Engineer-in-Chief. They moved to the Malay States. Dominick died in Borneo in 1889. Harriet returned to England and became a correspondent for the Sydney Morning Herald. A researcher has stated that this is not Mr and Mrs Daly: 'The studio imprint verso shows Crawford as manager of the Adelaide Photographic Co. This was the case from its inception in January 1864 to when he left in December 1866. So the carte must likely date to the mid 1860s. Harriet Douglas (born 1854) did not marry Dominic Daniel Daly until October 1871'.
